If it ain't useful, it is trash.

I stop for useful stuff, even if sometimes I have to go out of my way
to double back. (Have you ever tried to snag a leather welding coat from
the middle lane of a freeway? "Sprint grasshopper, Speed is essential."
Not to mention fear is a good motivator.
Not to mention the time I snagged 9 cases of fresh corn on the cob,
still in the box. "Picked it myself, fresh off the truck!"

I've been tempted a couple times to try and get the busted up ladder by
the Jersey barrier in the middle - hey, it's "scrap aluminum", but the
timing doesn't seem right. (Traffic, my schedule.)
